Yo this had me real confused for a minute, I thought it was the same person just literally posting the same thing he said the other day.

Anyway I'm now more than ever convinced that every single person with a recent regdate posting in here (SA Forums Poster and the two quoted above) is a rereg, but either way nobody gives a poo poo if you're old or new or whatever, :justpost: (but better).

I get the sense that Lobstermobster is a Tito fan in the same way that someone is an Alan Partridge fan. Like she watches Tito, and she enjoys time spent observing him, but I don't think she likes him.

Someone remind me. Who was the Alaskan Fighting Championships dude on the season of TUF where they wanted to find Demetrious Johnson's next victim? If I remember correctly he was like 6'2" and cut down to fight at flyweight, and also, like most TUF participants since the Dawn of Time, he loving Sucked.

This dude?

I've never watched TUF, this is just what google pulled up, he's listed as 5'10" which is still really big for flyweight.

Cortney Casey just weighed in at 123.5 with the hoop and really shaky (hands up so no shenanigans) which made me think it was a huge weight miss, but no it's a flyweight bout, so :shrug:.

Just tuned in so I don't know who else weight in so far, I'll probably update this post when it's done if nothing exceptional happens that would prompt me to update it sooner.

I woke up this morning, realized there were weigh ins again already, and made a Jim from the Office face because I don’t know if I can care.

Decent looking heavyweight fight on top of the card, at least.

If you care about crowd favorites, Roxy and Belal are fighting.

If you care about the old guard, Jim Miller and Clay Guida are fighting.

If you care about the young prospects, Roosevelt Roberts, Shane Burgos and Brianna van Buren are fighting.

But you're telling me that you only care about the Heavyweight fight? The one where one of the fighters is telling you not to tune in?

I agree, and also lmao:



It's loving crazy that Blaydes has 10 minutes 45 seconds of Octagon time with Ngannou resulting in 2 separate losses, and everyone else he's beaten convincingly, for whoever was asking a couple pages ago about trilogy fights where the first 2 fights were won by the same person, Ngannou vs Blaydes is probably gonna be the next one.

That first fight was his UFC debut, and Ngannou's second UFC fight, talk about an unlucky draw.

I can’t see Ngannou taking another fight against Blaydes, though. If I were Ngannou, I would be refusing to face anyone except Jones, DC, or Stipe at this point.

It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?



Ngannou Blaydes 1 owned because it was an injury tko due to his eye closing up and he tried to Helen Keller his way past the doctor by feeling his fingers to determine how many he was holding up, and it worked on the ref

We're all doomed
A bunch of moderators left for some forum drama reason, fatherdog asked to be banned and Lowtax (the one person on the forum he couldn't "nope" his way through an argument with) did indeed ban him. The wrestling moderator at the time also left and that's when they installed a new wrestling moderator and decided to not have a dedicated MMA one anymore, and honestly the community is now dead enough that it's not needed. Although I think fatherdog's departure really hurt the MMA portion of this forum in general.

And if it matters, from what I remember at the time what fatherdog was pissed off about is he felt that d&d was being too tolerant of nazi posters.
